My favorite knife set
I love the colors and the fact that they all come with blade covers. They work great and are holding up well. I use them daily and have had no issues with them. They are durable, easy to clean, and sharp. I usually hand wash my knives but you could put these in the dishwasher.

Surprisingly Sharp & Well-Packaged — Clean Cuts Even on Crusty Bread *Video Included*
I picked up this Cuisinart Advantage 12-piece knife set looking for something practical for everyday cooking, and overall, I’ve been really impressed with it. ✅ What I like: •Impressive packaging & protection. Each knife comes in its own individual box, and inside that, every knife is wrapped and protected with a blade guard. Nothing felt loose or thrown together—it all arrived clean, secure, and well protected. It honestly feels more premium than expected and would make a great gift. •Color-coded convenience. Each knife has its own color, which makes it really easy to grab the right one quickly. It’s especially helpful when cooking multiple things at once. •Blade guards included. A huge plus for safety and storage, especially if you don’t use a knife block. •Good variety. The set covers all the basics—paring, bread, slicing, santoku—so you’re not constantly reaching for the same knife. •Actually sharp out of the box. I tested the serrated knife on a crusty loaf of Italian bread, and it sliced cleanly with just a few sawing motions. I honestly put more pressure on the bread than the knife—it cut through easily without tearing. •Lightweight and easy to handle. Comfortable for everyday use without feeling bulky. Lifetime warranty. Nice added peace of mind knowing the brand stands behind the product. ⚠️ What to keep in mind: These aren’t high-end or professional knives—they’re meant for everyday use. The coated blades will require care (hand-wash recommended), and may show wear over time. Like most sets in this range, they’ll likely need sharpening with regular use. 💬 Real-life takeaway: These aren’t luxury knives—but they’re sharp, convenient, and a huge upgrade from mismatched or dull kitchen knives. Between the packaging, safety features, and actual performance, they’re a great everyday set for most homes. ⭐️I included photos and a video showing what's included, size variety, and product quality to expect.

Excellent knife starter set/supplementary set
Love these knives! Very sharp and affordable! Great colors! The blade protectors are a big plus too when storing them in the kitchen utensil drawers. Gave a set to each adult offspring for Christmas and bought a set for myself! (My Wusthof knives from the 1990s lost their edge ages ago—despite professional honing/sharpening; this Cuisinart set puts my Wustof knives to shame!) I am very pleased with my 3x purchase of this set.

Great set of knives
I love these knives. They are comfortable in my hand, Very easy to clean and are so sharp. I didn’t realize how bad my old knives were, even though I sharpened them regularly. And they have a good assortment of types of knives and they are reasonably priced.

Mahvelous, Simply Mahvelous Dahling
I was looking for a set of knives. We were tired of using double butter knives and plastic knives from the Chinese takeout. So after much searching on Amazon I spotted these bad boys. But honestly the color is what drew me in. The price is what kept me around. And the reviews are what made me buy it. It being the set. So just to set things straight you get six knives and six covers for each knife. Hence the 12 pieces advertised in the description and on the box. I immediately used the smallest blue knife while preparing a sandwich for my boyfriend. You're basic ham and Munster cheese on wheat bread – I don't eat ham because I am vegan but you do what you Gotta do when you are looking out for your sick loved one. AnyWho, this knife cut through the sandwich like a hot knife through butter. Quick and easy with no lag time. There was no jagged or torn edges on the bread – which means the knife is dull. Later on that night while making myself dinner I had the opportunity to use the chefs knife – I called the chefs knife the red one but it might be something different – to cut an assortment of vegetables. I was very impressed with how the knife was able to mince up two cloves of garlic with no issue whatsoever. The bread knife – yellow – cut through about 8 ciabatta rolls beautifully. My brother-in-law used the purple knife with the "teeth" to cut up a piece of frozen steak. I do not know if this was the correct life for this job but again it did the job beautifully. We are not master chefs, obviously. So maybe we use the wrong knife for the wrong job, but nonetheless these knives were beautiful. I even took the green one and tested it out on a thick piece of cardboard. The box from Amazon. Chopped through that box like WHOA WHOA DOGGY. The bottom of the knife – the part you would cut your food with is not colored .you can see the stainless steel. I personally like that because I know that when I cut my food and when I sharpen the knife there will be very little chance of "paint chips". We have this really cheap frying pan and when my brother in law make scrambled eggs it's always "seasoned" with the nonstick coating. This is why I have not use that pan in a very long time. This is also what I blame for his behavior. I believe The nonstick chunks are just drying The nonstick chunks are eating his brain. When all is said and done everything about this knife set is beautiful. The price, the look, the colors, the sharpness, etc. if you are in the market for an affordable sat look no further. I mean obviously you get what you pay for so I doubt these are going to last me a long time but for the foreseeable future they kick a lot of a55

Great set of knives for any kitchen.
I really like these knives. I do a lot of cooking, I enjoy it. I took a few cooking classes with some pros when I worked as a manager at a large chain restaurant that has good quality food & I discovered that to me preparing a large gourmet meal is relaxing & rewarding, especially if it's for friends & family. It does mess up your "groove" though when you are trying to chop, slice, etc. with dull, badly handled knives. At the restaurant we used great knives & they were kept sharp. I loved them, but for some reason I never invested in a good set for myself at home. My knives weren't bad, & I sharpened them regularly, but I think my continue use of them was mostly sentimental. The knives I use were (some still are) my mom's & she received them as as wedding gift. They were expensive, nice knives, but they have aged & it's hard to keep them sharp now. So, after that story that no one really needed to hear, lol, I'll tell you about the Cuisinart set. Even though I mentioned investing in a nice set of knives, these definitely weren't not priced that way. In fact, the price almost deterred me at 1st; I thought good knives could not be that cheap, but I think our brains in the US have been trained to think anything good must be expensive & it's just not always true. I like that these are colored; I can quickly grab the knife I want from the larger ones based on color. Some ppl might want them uniform if they keep them out on display, but mine are in a drawer. They are all sharp, I tested them all when I received them after reading a few reviews that said some were dull. They've cut through everything I've used them on beautifully, raw chicken, bread, lots of melons & pineapple, etc. I like having covers so they can't get beat up & dulled when storing. I used a set similar to these at my sister's & asked where she got them. She sent me the link but they aren't available anymore. I found these & I think they are actually better. I think whether you do a light amount of cooking, or cook larger meals almost daily, like me, you'll like these. There's a knife for everything. They sit very nicely in your hand & have good weight to them.

Buy
I've been buying the inexpensive Cuisinart knives sets for about a decade now. My first set was a gift, I replaced them about 5 years ago and just bought my 3rd set. They are the best everyday knives! I have very expensive knives for not your everyday tasks. Buy these if you chop slice, dice and want to just put them in the dishwasher. Sharpen occasionally and you are set! I was not paid for this review, I just love to cook and useful tools are welcome in my kitchen.

Great knife set! Highly recommend!
These are really nice and good quality! I couldn’t find another knife set that I liked better, and pretty much all the other pieces ones were a lot more expensive. These are nice, sleek, look cool, feel and work great. It is hard to find a set of white knives for some reason. This definitely fits the bill, though! Also great if you are doing an all-white or farmhouse kitchen theme. These are great! Would absolutely recommend and would buy again. They also do well in the dishwasher, too! Great set of knives, and plenty sharp for your kitchen needs!

perfect knife set for beginner cook
UPDATE: 2 years late and this knife set is still holding up. Absolutely no rust and dishwasher safe. HOWEVER we are buying a nicer set because we cook more and these knives aren't good enough. The large knife bends whenever we cut carrots or something hard and I'm worried it will break. Also most of the knives have dulled so cutting things like tomatoes is inconvenient, even though it still does the job. Still A+ for beginners but not for the long term. we just moved into a small condo and needed a basic knife set for cooking meals, nothing elaborate. this is fantastic value! to be honest i only use 3 of the knives in this set but for $25 you can't go wrong. They're very sharp, durable, and easy to clean. The Sheathes make storage very easy too. I am concerned however because when chopping carrots, the blade feels like it bends slightly. If I cook more often I will need a better set. However for chopping meats and small vegetables, this is great!

Facas de qualidade além de lindas
As facas são lindas e excelentes. Metal duro, cortam muito. Recomendo usar uma tábua de bambu para não chegar rápido.
